Tom Steyer has been pouring money into New Hampshire in support of Democrat Jeanne Shaheen. He’s the Green energy global warming billionaire buying up the US Senate for Democrats. Steyer is one of those evil banker types who made a chunk of his fortune investing in coal, two strikes Democrats dismissed when he promised to […]

New Hampshire Democrat Senator Jeanne Shaheen is participating in a special all night event in the US Senate. From 10pm tonight until 9am Tuesday morning, twenty-eight Democrat Senators so far (I include the Independent socialist Bernie Sanders (VT) as a Democrat) will talk endlessly about …climate change. Eleven hours of speeches about climate change. And […]

Global Warming has never been about warming. It is a scheme to use “energy” and the environment to direct behavior toward a socialist system of central planning, even if that “system” is contrary to the stated objective of climate alarmism. If you need proof of that take a look at this. United Nations climate chief […]

Two weeks and then some after writing about how the 2013 hurricane season has been a dud, it continues to ba a dud despite dire predictions by ‘experts’ of an above average year. I has actually been a below average year, so far. While there is still time for the number of storms to pick […]

This was compiled using global satellite data. No heat islands. Best gauge of global temperature trends over long periods of time. The longest trend (purple) is flat. The last full decade (green) flat with a slight drop near 2010. The last ten consecutive years (blue) are in decline. And it is no coincidence that this […]

One of the best things about ignoring all the hype and just using common sense is when you are proven right. The only thing better than that is when the Kool-aid® drinkers start to realize that you were right as well. What the heck am I talking about? Electric cars. For close to five years, […]

My title is from the now infamous line from the narcissistic in chief, Barack Obama, where he announces that by choosing him, the planet could begin to heal. I’m not feelin’ the healin.’ It also turns out that the rise of the seas (what little there was) began to slow in 2002/2003, and have been heading downward […]

Thankfully no one was hurt but talk about an eye opener. Fire Lt. Kenneth Vincent said with the increase in people using “green” cleaning products, the number of chemical combustion fires is on the rise. Those are two words that should make any Birkenstock wearing, free-trade-latte-drinking-tree-hugging-Kashi-eating-granola junkie shudder – ‘chemical fire.’ That can’t be good for the […]

“Contrary to the claims that “unfair” foreign competition hurts the jobs at home, the unemployment rate actually fares better in times of higher trade deficits. Bryan Riley and former Ambassador Terry Miller provide further clarification: When the trade deficit increases, the unemployment rate decreases, and vice versa. For example, in 2009, the U.S. trade deficit […]

What are the unidentified costs of banning disposable shopping bags? I’ve been speculating for months. In this video PERC Lone Mountain Fellow Jonathan Klick argues that the presence of harmful bacteria (in reusable grocery bags whose use is mandated after plastic bag bans are put in place) creates a health cost that has not been […]

This is almost a palate cleanser but then it is not. Apparently the LA plastic bag ban was motivated by celebrity goobers with green thumbs. Egged on by actress Julia Louis-Dreyfus and an array of environmental groups, the City Council voted 13 to 1 to phase out plastic bags over the next 12 months at an estimated […]

My second thought after hearing about Price Charles remarks on US beef consumption–I won’t share the first, it’s not proper–was “where is the nearest cheeseburger?” The cheeseburger is perhaps the most perfect culinary delight ever conceived It is also an excellent way to deliver bacon to the taste-buds, and positioned next to a Sam Adams Boston Lager, could well be the last decent meal I ever ask for once the regime starts rounding up people like me.

Anyone who lives in an actual ecosystem, one that is not dominated by concrete and asphalt off which the trill of horns and car alarms can be heard echoing in the night, has no frikkin idea what an ecosystem really is. It is not the cacophony of traffic punctuated by an olfactory brawl between diesel fumes, a pine tree shaped “new car smell” air freshener,” the infrequent bathing habits of a middle eastern cab driver, and your cinnamon latte. Wildlife is not defined by the alcoholic mating calls of things that stumble out of neon lit night clubs, or the guttural whispers emanating from ill-lit, trash filled alleys. And conservation is not an extra crate from Crate and Barrel into which you place the recyclable refuse of fair-trade certified foods.

The Carson-Gore Academy of Environmental Sciences in California (tin foil hats are mandatory) was built on top of a piece of contaminated land. Oh yeah baby. There are of course ‘concerns’ for the welfare of the students. (The 75 million dollar School was named after Rachel Carson and Al Gore–Environmental scaremongering is probably also required.) […]

Not to be nit-picky, but isn’t paying people $8.30/hour to go door to door the opposite of grass roots, or is this part of that “layered strategy.” You know, the one where there are no grass roots at all and they are just paying people to shill for Paul Hodes because frankly, there isn’t enough interest to get people to do it for free?

With bi-partisan support the Senate has blocked a new energy tax passed by the House that would have hit the middle class and working families right in their shrinking wallets. The CLEAR act, a job killing tax raising attempt by House democrats beholden to radical environmentalists, would have driven energy industry jobs out of America […]

Paul Hodes has a dirty little secret. His ‘commitment’ to green energy has strings attached that lead directly to the sugar industry and a significant campaign cash “Thank You.” Back in 2007 and 2008 Congress waged an epic battle over the Farm Bill. They didn’t call it the farm bill they called it the Food […]

The democrat party line on BP is to close ranks and paint Republicans as protecting big oil. This is necessary to distract America from Obama’s incompetence and the democrat’s cozy relationship with the British energy company. Both Carol Shea-Porter and Paul Hodes got the memo—they are on board—using tragedy for personal and political profit as […]

Courtesy of Politico via NH Watchdog-apparently Mr. Obama is now blaming people for things that never happened in the past that he never even suggested. In an interview with Politico, the president said: “I think it’s fair to say, if six months ago, before this spill had happened, I had gone up to Congress and […]

“Dances with Wolves” meets the “Lion King,” only instead of hyenas coming to rob the available resources away from the soldier who has gone native and his new BFF’s we get GIJOE Rise Of Cobra meets Blackwater—and maybe toss in a few minutes of Altered States for good measure. That’s my take on Avatar, […]

PSNH, New Hampshire’s largest supplier of electricitiy, is looking to adjust rates to compensate for lost revenue. They lost the revenue because of decreased usage. Usage has decreased because of the economy, but that presents us with a real world truth. The implications of the liberal environmental movement do not match the facts. Enviro-weenies want you to reduce […]
